As the first decade of the 21st century comes to an end, the pharmaceutical industry is facing a major revenue downturn. The contributing factors are the expiration of patents on a number of blockbuster drugs and the stagnant productivity of R&D. As a consequence generics are expected to seriously erode revenues and the introduction of new proprietary drugs is not adequate. The once insular pharmaceutical industry has been forced to look outside beyond its walls for drug pipeline candidates. The result has been an almost expediential growth of the past decade in the number and value of strategic alliances. This report analyses in detail the key driving forces behind the growth of strategies alliances and the changing characteristics of such deals to include:
- The pattern of escalating deal valuations
- Typical components of a strategic alliance
- Timely commentary for alliance executives
- Trends for future strategic alliance deals
- Recommendation for the future
Strategic Alliances: Synergistic Path to Value Creation reviews the structure of the past decade of strategic alliance deals in order to focus on the components, valuations and growth of such deals. Much of the growth in strategic alliances has been driven by the pharmaceutical industry’s need to add candidate products to its drug development pipelines. The industries internal R&D programs, despite escalating budget increases, have not been able to replace the blockbuster drugs coming off patent.
